Outside work, Ash has a young family and enjoys spending time with them in the outdoors. He enjoys most sports, and trying to stay fit when time permits.

TetraMap Facilitation

TetraMap is a tool that any leader or group can use to enhance their understanding of those that they interact with. By growing that understanding you begin to see what you can do to improve as a leader and how to get the maximum from your day-to-day relationships.

At the end of a TetraMap session you will have experienced the following:
– You and your team will have had fun
– You will understand why people react the way they do under pressure
– You will know the best way to approach those around you
– You will have a greater understanding of individuals and how they might complement each other in a team environment

Ash is available to groups, teams or businesses as an external TetraMap facilitator, and his role sees him travel extensively throughout the lower South Island and further as required.
